Mental Health Crisis & Involuntary Hospitalization: My EDS Journey | EDS Awareness

Welcome to Episode 8 of my Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) lecture series! 🎥
In this episode, I share an honest and open discussion about my life with EDS, including a severe mental health crisis and an involuntary hospitalization. This talk is part of a lecture given to a class of medical school residents in their second year, on the verge of becoming practicing family medicine doctors.
I discuss how my diagnosis of autism was complicated by a traumatic hospital stay after surgery complications. This episode aims to shed light on the complex interplay between chronic illness, mental health, and the healthcare system.
